When our ‘new’ parliament building is water-logged, what chance do we the citizens have? Frankly, the haste with which the new building was constructed, singularly unaesthetic and with no character , while the wonderfully distinctive and charming old parliament building and iconic central hall lies mostly unused, is saddening. Tax payer monies going literally down the drain.

➡️ The Supreme Court (SC) has issued a notice in response to a Special Leave Petition (SLP) filed by an assessee challenging a Patna High Court judgment that upheld the constitutional validity of section 16(4) of the CGST/Bihar GST Act, 2017.
➡️ Section 16(4) denies Input Tax Credit (ITC) for any invoice or debit note issued after the due date of furnishing returns under section 39, specifically for the month of November following the end of the financial year or the relevant annual return, whichever is earlier.
➡️ The petitioner argues before the SC that section 16(4) is confiscatory in nature, as the denial of ITC acts as a forfeiture of property in the form of a financial benefit when returns are filed late. The petitioner points out that the Revenue is collecting late fees for belated returns, which can be regularized, but ITC is permanently lost in the process.
➡️ The outcome of the case is pending as the copy of the order is awaited from the Supreme Court.

A taxi driver shared his impression that the purpose of introducing more and more vande bharath trains was to gradually ease out the others so that fares silently go up. Could not find fault with the logic because it happened with low floor busses in TN.
⚠️💥 New GST Case Lawon Input Tax Credit (ITC) ; In favour of assessee
📢 Refund of accumulated ITC is admissible even if principal input & output have the same GST but other inputs have a different rate
➡️ The case involves the denial of a refund for accumulated Input Tax Credit (ITC) on Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG), which was procured in bulk, compressed into liquid, refilled in cylinders, and sold.
➡️ The denial was based on the argument that both the input (LPG) and output (bottled LPG) attracted the same GST rate of 5%, but the court held that various items used in production, including safety accessories, had different GST rates, such as 18%.
➡️ The court emphasized that the term 'inputs' in the relevant provision indicated that the refund of accumulated ITC was not limited to a single input. The provision allowed for a refund if the tax rate on inputs was higher than the tax rate on output supplies.
➡️ The court rejected the notion of comparing the tax rate of the principal input with the tax rate of the principal output, stating that the provision did not require such a comparison. The tax rate of other inputs with different rates should also be considered.
➡️ The court ruled that CBIC Circular No. 135, which was related to ITC accumulated due to different rates at different times, was not applicable. The authorities were directed to process refund applications along with interest.

@PIB_India Revenue reported is from voluntary compliance.. What about blocked in pending litigation at various levels. Even after six years of gst, the lakhs of legacy cases in service tax has blocked lakhs of crores.. Amnesty appears only solution to do away with such cases
